CVE-2023-5847 3 Linux, Microsoft, Tenable 4 Linux Kernel, Windows, Nessus and 1 more 2023-11-14 N/A 7.3 HIGH
Under certain conditions, a low privileged attacker could load a specially crafted file during installation or upgrade to escalate privileges on Windows and Linux hosts.
CVE-2021-3450 10 Fedoraproject, Freebsd, Mcafee and 7 more 35 Fedora, Freebsd, Web Gateway and 32 more 2023-08-04 5.8 MEDIUM 7.4 HIGH
The X509_V_FLAG_X509_STRICT flag enables additional security checks of the certificates present in a certificate chain. It is not set by default. Starting from OpenSSL version 1.1.1h a check to disallow certificates in the chain that have explicitly encoded elliptic curve parameters was added as an additional strict check. An error in the implementation of this check meant that the result of a previous check to confirm that certificates in the chain are valid CA certificates was overwritten. This effectively bypasses the check that non-CA certificates must not be able to issue other certificates. If a "purpose" has been configured then there is a subsequent opportunity for checks that the certificate is a valid CA. All of the named "purpose" values implemented in libcrypto perform this check. Therefore, where a purpose is set the certificate chain will still be rejected even when the strict flag has been used. A purpose is set by default in libssl client and server certificate verification routines, but it can be overridden or removed by an application. In order to be affected, an application must explicitly set the X509_V_FLAG_X509_STRICT verification flag and either not set a purpose for the certificate verification or, in the case of TLS client or server applications, override the default purpose. OpenSSL versions 1.1.1h and newer are affected by this issue. Users of these versions should upgrade to OpenSSL 1.1.1k. OpenSSL 1.0.2 is not impacted by this issue. Fixed in OpenSSL 1.1.1k (Affected 1.1.1h-1.1.1j).
CVE-2022-0778 6 Debian, Fedoraproject, Mariadb and 3 more 14 Debian Linux, Fedora, Mariadb and 11 more 2022-07-25 5.0 MEDIUM 7.5 HIGH
The BN_mod_sqrt() function, which computes a modular square root, contains a bug that can cause it to loop forever for non-prime moduli. Internally this function is used when parsing certificates that contain elliptic curve public keys in compressed form or explicit elliptic curve parameters with a base point encoded in compressed form. It is possible to trigger the infinite loop by crafting a certificate that has invalid explicit curve parameters. Since certificate parsing happens prior to verification of the certificate signature, any process that parses an externally supplied certificate may thus be subject to a denial of service attack. The infinite loop can also be reached when parsing crafted private keys as they can contain explicit elliptic curve parameters. Thus vulnerable situations include: - TLS clients consuming server certificates - TLS servers consuming client certificates - Hosting providers taking certificates or private keys from customers - Certificate authorities parsing certification requests from subscribers - Anything else which parses ASN.1 elliptic curve parameters Also any other applications that use the BN_mod_sqrt() where the attacker can control the parameter values are vulnerable to this DoS issue. In the OpenSSL 1.0.2 version the public key is not parsed during initial parsing of the certificate which makes it slightly harder to trigger the infinite loop. However any operation which requires the public key from the certificate will trigger the infinite loop. In particular the attacker can use a self-signed certificate to trigger the loop during verification of the certificate signature. This issue affects OpenSSL versions 1.0.2, 1.1.1 and 3.0. It was addressed in the releases of 1.1.1n and 3.0.2 on the 15th March 2022. Fixed in OpenSSL 3.0.2 (Affected 3.0.0,3.0.1). Fixed in OpenSSL 1.1.1n (Affected 1.1.1-1.1.1m). Fixed in OpenSSL 1.0.2zd (Affected 1.0.2-1.0.2zc).

The moment module before 2.19.3 for Node.js is prone to a regular expression denial of service via a crafted date string, a different vulnerability than CVE-2016-4055.
CVE-2020-5793 2 Microsoft, Tenable 3 Windows, Nessus, Nessus Agent 2020-11-16 7.2 HIGH 7.8 HIGH
A vulnerability in Nessus versions 8.9.0 through 8.12.0 for Windows & Nessus Agent 8.0.0 and 8.1.0 for Windows could allow an authenticated local attacker to copy user-supplied files to a specially constructed path in a specifically named user directory. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by creating a malicious file and copying the file to a system directory. The attacker needs valid credentials on the Windows system to exploit this vulnerability.
CVE-2020-5774 1 Tenable 1 Nessus 2020-08-28 3.6 LOW 7.1 HIGH
Nessus versions 8.11.0 and earlier were found to maintain sessions longer than the permitted period in certain scenarios. The lack of proper session expiration could allow attackers with local access to login into an existing browser session.
CVE-2019-3974 2 Microsoft, Tenable 2 Windows, Nessus 2020-08-24 8.5 HIGH 8.1 HIGH
Nessus 8.5.2 and earlier on Windows platforms were found to contain an issue where certain system files could be overwritten arbitrarily, potentially creating a denial of service condition.
CVE-2017-7199 1 Tenable 1 Nessus 2019-10-03 7.2 HIGH 7.8 HIGH
Nessus 6.6.2 - 6.10.3 contains a flaw related to insecure permissions that may allow a local attacker to escalate privileges when the software is running in Agent Mode. Version 6.10.4 fixes this issue.
CVE-2018-1141 1 Tenable 1 Nessus 2019-10-03 4.4 MEDIUM 7.0 HIGH
When installing Nessus to a directory outside of the default location, Nessus versions prior to 7.0.3 did not enforce secure permissions for sub-directories. This could allow for local privilege escalation if users had not secured the directories in the installation location.
CVE-2017-6543 2 Microsoft, Tenable 3 Windows, Appliance, Nessus 2019-10-03 6.0 MEDIUM 7.3 HIGH
Tenable Nessus before 6.10.2 (as used alone or in Tenable Appliance before 4.5.0) was found to contain a flaw that allowed a remote, authenticated attacker to upload a crafted file that could be written to anywhere on the system. This could be used to subsequently gain elevated privileges on the system (e.g., after a reboot). This issue only affects installations on Windows.
CVE-2017-7850 1 Tenable 1 Nessus 2019-10-03 7.2 HIGH 7.8 HIGH
Nessus 6.10.x before 6.10.5 was found to be vulnerable to a local privilege escalation issue due to insecure permissions when running in Agent Mode.
CVE-2017-11506 1 Tenable 1 Nessus 2017-08-24 5.8 MEDIUM 7.4 HIGH
When linking a Nessus scanner or agent to Tenable.io or other manager, Nessus 6.x before 6.11 does not verify the manager's TLS certificate when making the initial outgoing connection. This could allow man-in-the-middle attacks.
